Reply to comment by JKUAN108 in A study of NFL games during the 2020 season suggests a link between attendance and COVID spikes in surrounding counties 14 and 21 days later. The inferred connection held strongest for games attended by 20,000-plus fans by Wagamaga

You do not understand sarcasm.

There is no back-peddling and my argument stands.

NFL/ncaa attendance Data collected pre Beta variant shows no increase.

NFL attendance Data Collected during Beta variant, inconsistent, sometimes no effect with no explanation as to why.

The Strong relationship when over 20,000 fans is explained by population density being higher in the larger cities and outbreaks effecting higher populated areas significantly harder.

I provided Mechanisms, Reasoning, Comparing papers and variables.

​

You provided "both papers show no covid problems with less then 10,000 people" which agreeing with me and contradicts yourself.

Conclusion

NO COVID PROBLEMS FROM NFL GAMES.

Ok, so for the fifth time, please provide a PAPER backing up your claim about the Beta variant ("BECAUSE THEY [the authors] ALREADY KNOW THE CAUSE WAS THE BETA VARIANT" and "The cause of the increase in cases was the Beta Variant and nothing else")

> contradicts yourself

No, what I said was that there were no COVID problems with less than 10,000 people (or maybe 5000 people) and there were COVID problems with more than 20,000 people. Show me where I contradicted myself.

> NO COVID PROBLEMS FROM NFL GAMES.

Do you work for the NFL or something? The conclusion is "no covid problems with less then 10,000 people" not "NO COVID PROBLEMS FROM NFL GAMES"

Should I even bother asking you if you have a source on this one?
